£800 is divided between Natasha, Richard & Stephen so that Natasha gets twice as much as Richard, and Richard gets three times as much as Stephen. How much does Richard get?

 Natasha = 480; Richard = 240, Stephen = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N, R, and S stand for the amounts Natasha, Richard and Stephen receive.  The problem tells us that:

N = 2R, and

R = 3S

We know that N+R+S = 800

Since N=2R and R=3S, N = 6S

N+R+S = 800

6S+3S+S=800

10S=800

S=80

R=3S or 240

N=2R or 480

Conclusion:

N gets 480

R gets 240,

and S gets 80

That adds to 800.

. . .  AND the last conclusion is that I need to meet Natasha.  Please send Stephen home.
